“…We have recently demonstrated two interesting extensions of pulse shaping. The first experiment demonstrates the use of a programmable pulse shaper for phase filtering of incoherent light from an erbium doped fiber amplified spontaneous emission source [51]. Related experiments were also reported in [52], [53].…”

Shaping, signal processing, and time-space conversion of femtosecond pulses can be achieved by linear and nonlinear manipulation of the spatially dispersed optical frequency spectrum within a grating and lens pulse shaper. In this paper, we first review our work on femtosecond pulse shaping and processing, with an emphasis on applications to high-speed communications and information processing. We then present a new concept for generalized time-space processing based on cascaded time-to-space and space-to-time conversions in conjunction with smart pixel optoelectronic arrays and provide a detailed discussion of our recent studies of time-to-space conversion based on second-harmonic generation (SHG) within a femtosecond pulse shaper.

“…However, pulse shapers may also be viewed more generally as user-programmable arbitrary spectral phase and amplitude filters. This provides the capability for manipulating the correlation properties of classical incoherent light fields 96 and, importantly, of quantum light. The time correlation function of entangled photons was first successfully shaped in 2005 83 , with subsequent experiments extending to amplitude shaping 84 , state characterization 95 , and high-dimensional information encoding 85 .…”

A key challenge for quantum science and technology is to realise large-scale, precisely controllable, practical systems for non-classical secured communications, metrology and ultimately meaningful quantum simulation and computation. Optical frequency combs represent a powerful approach towards this, since they provide a very high number of temporal and frequency modes which can result in large-scale quantum systems. The generation and control of quantum optical frequency combs will enable a unique, practical and scalable framework for quantum signal and information processing. Here, we review recent progress on the realization of energy-time entangled optical frequency combs and discuss how photonic integration and the use of fiber-optic telecommunications components can enable quantum state control with new functionalities, yielding unprecedented capability.
